Blake Treinen Secures Second Save Of The Season
6 days agoLos Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Blake Treinen worked a scoreless ninth inning despite giving up a hit and a walk to the Nationals on Wednesday in Washington. He stranded two runners in scoring position when James Wood grounded out to end the game and helped the Dodgers avoid suffering a road sweep at the hands of the Nationals. The Dodgers had to rely on their relievers early in this game after Luke Knack gave up five runs in just 2 1/3 innings, but the bullpen delivered 6 2/3 innings of scoreless relief. The Dodgers are using a few different options to close out games based on the situation, but Treinen remains part of the mix and has two saves in three opportunities, along with a pair of holds. He has allowed two runs in six innings this season with seven strikeouts.
